Common concerns
Living beside Rutland Water often means walking, cycling or sailing, with plenty of sun and wind on the skin over the years. Skin boosters and microneedling are popular for skin quality, alongside anti-wrinkle injections for squint lines.
Forehead lines, frown lines and crow's feet are the most common reasons people get in touch. Left alone, fine movement lines can gradually become lines you see even at rest. Anti-wrinkle injections can soften them while keeping natural expression.
With age, the cheeks can flatten and lines around the mouth deepen. Dermal filler can restore subtle support to lips, cheeks and marionette lines, while a non-surgical mini face and neck lift can help with early loss of definition.
Weather, stress and time all affect skin quality. Skin boosters hydrate from within, and microneedling supports smoother texture and a more even tone.
Choosing a provider on price alone, skipping a proper consultation, or booking just days before an event are the most common regrets. Mel always starts with a free consultation and recommends leaving time for results to settle.
